Folding baskets are used directly from the place of origin, reducing intermediate links and improving efficiency

In the current situation of my country's fresh supply chain, there are problems that the upstream and downstream are extremely scattered and the midstream is multi-level. Fresh food goes through at least 4 layers of supply chain from farmers to consumers, which is very lengthy.

Due to the extremely scattered upstream, in order to meet the needs of agricultural products in different regions and different seasons, my country has formed a stable fresh food circulation system based on multi-level wholesale markets for many years. Acquired, transported to the wholesale market of the origin, and then distributed by the wholesale market of the place of sale, secondary wholesalers, etc. to the retail farmer’s market, supermarket, etc., and finally reached the end consumer.

Due to the lengthy supply chain, the loss of agricultural products after each layer of storage, transportation, loading and unloading is relatively large, and the transportation cost, labor cost, etc. are superimposed, and the price is increased layer by layer, which makes the difference between the production and sales of the two places larger, and the current gross profit margin of fresh retail terminals generally lower.

On the whole, the current domestic fresh food supply chain is still dominated by a multi-level distribution model that is lengthy and high-loss not yet manifested. However, reducing intermediate links in the supply chain and improving procurement efficiency must be the trend of fresh food circulation in the future.
